Technical Specifications
Vehicles with
service intervals dependent on time/distance travelled
already
have certain service intervals set.
The intervals are calculated separately in vehicles with
LongLife service
Tech-
nical progress has made it possible to considerably reduce servicing require-
ments. With the LongLife System, SEAT ensures that your vehicle only has an
interval service when it is necessary. To calculate this (max. two years), the
conditions under which the vehicle is used and the individual driving style
are also taken into account. The service pre-warning will appear at 20 days or
less prior to the corresponding service. The distance travelled is rounded off
to the nearest 100 km and the time to full days. The current service message
can only be consulted 500 km or more after the last service. Until that time,
only dashes are displayed.
Service warning
A
service warning
will appear when the ignition is switched on if a service is
due soon.
The instrument panel display will show the “spanner symbol”
and the
“km” indication, along with a clock symbol with the days remaining until the
date of the next service. The figure indicated is the maximum number of kilo-
metres remaining before the date of the next service. The indication changes
after a few seconds. A “clock symbol” appears and the number of days until
the service appointment should be carried out.
Service
If a service is due, a gong signal will sound and the flashing “spanner”
symbol will be shown along with the fixed text
SERVICE
.
If
no service is carried out
following the indication on the instrument panel,
the excess distance travelled and the excess time following the
SERVICE
warning will be displayed.
Reading the service message
The
current service message
can be consulted with the ignition on, the
engine switched off and the vehicle at a standstill:
•
Press the
button on the instrument panel as often as necessary until
the spanner symbol
is displayed.
An
overdue service
is indicated by a minus sign in front of the mileage or day
information.
Resetting service interval display
If the service was not performed by a SEAT dealer, the display must be reset
as follows:
•
Switch the ignition off.
•
Press and hold the
button.
•
Switch ignition back on.
•
Release the
button and press the
button within 20 seconds.
Do
not
reset the display between service intervals, as the display will other-
wise be incorrect.
If the display is reset manually, the next service interval will be indicated after
15,000 km or one year and will not be calculated individually.
Note
In LongLife Service vehicles, if the battery is disconnected for a long period,
the days remaining until the next service cannot be calculated. Therefore, the
service message indications may be incorrect. In this case, bear in mind the
maximum service intervals permitted in the
⇒
Booklet “Service Schedule”.
